Cubasis Alternative for iPhone Recording
Cubasis is Steinberg's polished iOS and iPad DAW with strong MIDI, instruments, and Cubase compatibility. SONGTAKE is a free iPhone, iPad, and Mac recorder built around multi-phone capture, synced multicam video, true stereo, and AI stem splitting, with the same project synced across every device.
This is YOU?
Tracking a band on one iPad means one input and a lot of passing around.
You want a camera rolling on the take, not audio alone.
Moving a project from tablet to Mac to finish is not seamless.
You want quick AI stems from a rough recording, without a full session.
Pro Tip: TIP: SONGTAKE puts a phone near every source so each gets a dedicated mic, then auto-syncs the takes. Add multicam angles, split stems with AI, and open the same project on Mac to mix, all free to start.

What makes SONGTAKE different from voice memos?
SONGTAKE records in true stereo with automatic cloud backup, project organization, and multi-track capabilities. Unlike voice memos that create a graveyard of unnamed files, SONGTAKE keeps everything organized, synced across devices, and ready to develop into full productions.
Can I use SONGTAKE with just one phone?
Absolutely! SONGTAKE works perfectly with a single phone for recording arrangements, backing vocals, and layered instruments. While multiple phones provide multi-angle coverage and better isolation, one phone is sufficient to create professional multi-track recordings with video overdubbing.
Can I use SONGTAKE for professional music recording?
Absolutely! SONGTAKE allows you to effortlessly move from mobile recording to professional desktop production. Begin capturing your song ideas on your iPhone, then open the same project on a Mac with a 64-channel interface for mixing and mastering. It's the perfect tool to transform your inspiration into a polished production.
How does multi-phone recording work?
Place phones near each instrument for dedicated microphones. One tap starts all phones simultaneously, and they automatically sync after recording. No manual alignment needed—just position phones, hit record, and get professional multi-track isolation from devices you already own.
